Laser Treatments

Lasers are devices that are able to harness the energy from light beams and redirect them so that they produce very specific wavelengths which are selected to treat particular conditions in the skin surface or underlying dermis.

The energy output from cutaneous lasers does not include any harmful X-rays
or other ionising radiation so there are none of the associated dangers.
However, along with Intense Pulsed Lights (IPLs) they are complex
medical devices regulated by the Healthcare Commission and their
use must be under the supervision of a trained medical practitioner.
Lasers can be used to remove tattoos and excess hair growth
and a new generation of lasers and IPLs have been developed
to improve skin texture and tone as well as reducing the
appearance of thread veins and pigmentation marks.
Acne scar laser treatment is also available.

Before undergoing a laser treatment, such as laser surgery
for acne scars, you will require an initial consultation
and a test patch to assess your suitability. Our
qualified Practitioners will design a programme
of treatment for you and will monitor your progress carefully throughout. Our price brochure offers a guide to treatment costs and your practitioner will be able to confirm frequency of treatment and costs depending on the condition being treated. They will also be able to answer any questions you may have regarding the procedure; for example if acne laser treatment will leave any scarring, if it hurts, and how long each treatment session lasts.
